1. Ashwaubenon (5-0): The Jaguars had to overcome a first-half deficit to beat Green Bay East 47-34 on Friday. It was their 16th straight regular-season win, setting a Fox River Classic Conference record. It was far more difficult than most likely thought it would be against a winless East team, but the Red Devils can put up points. It was the third time this season the Jaguars found themselves in a close game at halftime (they led Green Bay Preble 21-17 in Week 1 and Green Bay Southwest 16-7 in Week 3) but they again showed they can make adjustments and take control when needed.

2. Bay Port (5-0): The Pirates had no problem in a 42-7 win at Manitowoc, and proved again that their offense could be the best in the area. They have scored at least 42 points in every game this season and are beating teams by an average of 32.6 points per game. The closest any team has come to them was Green Bay Notre Dame in Week 4, and Bay Port still won by 21. The Pirates host Green Bay West this week at Bay View Middle School before a showdown against Ashwaubneon at Bay Port on Oct. 3, which will be the first game at Bay Port with its new synthetic turf.

3. West De Pere (5-0): The Phantoms continue to dominate, this time in a 42-7 win at New London. West De Pere is not being tested and is rolling past its opponents. The Phantoms will play a Seymour team this week that has given them some problems at times in the past, but right now West De Pere is a favorite over anybody it is playing and is averaging a ridiculous 47.6 points per game while allowing just 5.2.

4. Wrightstown (4-1): The last two weeks have not been easy for the Tigers, but they are the best team in the Olympian/Packerland-Large Conference. Wrightstown beat Manitowoc Roncalli 16-7 on Friday, one week after beating Kewaunee by a touchdown. The Tigers are the only remaining unbeaten team in the conference, and three of their last four opponents — Brillion, Sturgeon Bay and Valders — have gone a combined 2-13.

5. Green Bay Notre Dame (4-1): There was not much of a question that the Tritons would beat a rebuilding Sheboygan North team on Friday, which they did 38-0. But the Tritons bounced back from their only loss of the season against Bay Port one week earlier and are rolling toward their 14th playoff appearance since joining the WIAA in 2000.

6. Kewaunee (4-1): The Storm jumped out to a commanding first-half lead on its way to a 48-9 win over Sturgeon Bay. Kewaunee scored on all five of its possessions in the first half and led 41-0 at halftime. Winning a share of the league title will be difficult at this point, but the Storm is well on its way to making the postseason for the 13th time in the last 14 seasons.

7. Green Bay Preble (4-1): The Hornets won their fourth straight game, 35-16 over Green Bay West. It's difficult to know where Preble belongs in the pecking order of the FRCC because it hasn't beaten any of the top teams yet. But it has taken care of business and has a few tough tests coming, including one against Notre Dame on Oct. 10.

8. Luxemburg-Casco (4-1): Had one of its best wins of the season, a commanding 33-8 nonconference victory over Waupaca. The Spartans have won two straight since their loss to West De Pere and have a huge game this week when it hosts undefeated Menasha, which along with the Phantoms are considered the class of the Bay.

9. Southern Door (4-1): Beat Valders 28-7 and has allowed just seven points in the last two games. The Eagles have a tough remaining schedule, including games against Kewaunee in Week 7 and Roncalli in Week 8.

10. Algoma (4-1): Inched a step closer to winning the Olympian/Packerland-Small Conference with a 25-0 victory over Oconto. It was the Wolves' second shutout of the season and first since a 37-0 win in Week 1 at Sturgeon Bay. They play at Manitowoc Lutheran on Friday in a battle of the last two undefeated teams in the conference.

TEAM OF THE WEEK

De Pere: Backup quarterback Cole Runge has led the Redbirds to three straight wins after starting the season 0-2. The latest was a 21-7 victory at Pulaski, putting De Pere in an excellent position to make the playoffs after missing out last season.
